Aspiring Brewers Take Note

Yesterday afternoon, Lisa Morrison held a fundraiser-cum-birthday party at the Horse Brass, and the result is very cool:

In co-sponsorship with the American Brewers Guild, the Glen Hay Falconer Foundation is offering a full-tuition scholarship to the Intensive Brewing Science & Engineering course that begins on January 18, 2010 and runs through June 25, 2010.

The Intensive Brewing Science & Engineering (“IBS&E”) course is a 22-week distance education program with a final week of residential instruction in Sacramento, California. The IBS&E course is specifically designed for professional and aspiring craft brewers seeking formal training in brewing science. The program provides a comprehensive learning experience that focuses on the technical, scientific, and operational matters and issues that brewers face in a craft brewing environment.

The scholarship is open to professional brewers and homebrewers from the states of Washington, Oregon, Alaska, Hawaii, and California’s northern geographic region (San Francisco Bay/Monterey Bay areas and north). The scholarship includes a $500 stipend to help offset travel and lodging expenses for the final onsite week in Sacramento, California.
